José Boto warns Flamengo fans over Filipe Luís contract talks | OneFootball

Filipe Luís has a contract with Flamengo until the end of 2025

Flamengo was crowned nine-time champion of the Brasileirão this Wednesday (03), after a 1-0 victory over Ceará. After celebrating the title, with less than a month left before Filipe Luís's contract ends, director José Boto was questioned about the status of the negotiations.

— Filipe and I go in at 8 am and leave at 8 pm. This, over the year, adds up to many hours of conversation. A lot of work, but many hours of conversation. Filipe is very prepared, ready for flights in Europe, but I think another year here will do him good— he said, before concluding:

— The renewal can happen at any moment. We talk about it almost every day. We didn't want these kinds of conversations to interfere in this final phase, which was very important. But now I'm sure it will be resolved. It can happen at any moment— concluded José Boto.

What is Filipe Luís's situation at Flamengo?

Coach Filipe Luís has a contract with Flamengo until the end of this year. Thus, the club's management is actively negotiating with the coach to extend the contract. However, at the moment, the talks are 'stalled' due to salary issues and the length of the agreement.

Flamengo announced the promotion of Filipe Luís to the professional team in October 2024, after Tite's dismissal. Since then, the young coach has captivated South American football and amassed titles, such as the Copa do Brasil, the Supercopa do Brasil, the Carioca, the Libertadores, and now the Brasileirão.

What is Flamengo's next match?

Despite still having one round to play in the Brasileirão, the main team of Flamengo is starting to focus on the Intercontinental Cup. Next Wednesday (10), Mengão faces Cruz Azul (MEX) at 2 pm (Brasília time), in Doha, Qatar.

In the Brasileirão, Flamengo concludes the campaign against Mirassol this Sunday (07), at 4 pm (Brasília time), at the José de Campos Maia Stadium, for the last round of the championship. As tradition dictates, Coluna do Fla will bring all the details of the match.
